Geez, some of you fools call yourselves boxing fans??? "Common Knowledge" that fighters tire more when they miss.
yep, and maybe he was tired bcause he was old, had'nt fought for well over a year, could'nt take PED's etc etc. The Bottom line is that Mosely was FAR, FAR from his prime. That is the TRUTH. Would Floyd have beaten a prime Mosley? Would he ****! Just like he would'nt have beaten a prime De La Hoya either. I dont care that mosley was the man at 147 or P4P No.3. Bottom line is that he never beat a prtime Mosley and never would have beaten a prime Mosley.
a prime mosley still; has no jab worse footwork little head movement no defense for a jab has a hard time making adjustments a prime de la hoya still; has troubles making adjustments cant cut off the ring has troubles with speed reaches for smaller fighters tires late he beats them both deal with it
You are an idiot. After just 2 rounds Mosley is already tired, with Mayweather doing nothing special at all. When do you see a fighter getting tired after only two rounds (unless you are shot). With your opponent doing nothing special at all?
WOW! He was not tired after two rounds, and you saying Mosley wasn't doing anything special???!!!! He made Mosley MISS 80% of his punches EIGHTY!!!!!!!!!! You're a MORON! Mayweather was fast as hell, and moved out of the way with ease. Look dude, many of us hardcore boxing fans KNEW it was going to play out like that...Where Mosley would do good in the first few rounds, and once Mayweather figured him out, it would be one sided, maybe your Casual ASS is surprised, but I've seen Mayweather fight since the Angel Manfredy fight, and I seen what he is capable of doing in the ring. Mosley had one of the BEST trainers in the game, but Mayweather was TOOOO GOOOOD for even Nazim to figure out.
Its good you bring the 80% missed punches ... just get the proper perspective. Mosley didn't hit Floyd more than 2 shots per round after the second round, this gives us around 5-10 shots per round thrown by Mosley in the latest 10 rounds .... it is then really interesting how Mosley was getting tired just from missing these 4-8 punches per round? To get the record straight Mosley threw single shots every 15-30 seconds in each round, and you are saying that missing one punch every half a minute is the reason he got tired? The more probable is that Mosley got tired in the first place (either because he was old, over trained, blood sucked, or rusted), then his punching output after the round 2 was dropped significantly and because he gassed out his speed was affected as well and that was the reason he didn't use his right hand at all, he didn't throw much punches and these which actually were thrown were missing in 80%.
The only problem I have with this is because I and many others who watched the fight cited that Shane looked tired as early as the third round. This wasn't after the fight we came to the conclusion, I was looking at my TV in shock as it was happening. "Why is Shane looking tired, it's round 3, he's not been hit hard often, but he looks tired". I think it was mostly as a result of him being 38 years of age, not having fought for well over a year also. Mayweather made it worse by being so exceptional, but Shane was hampered by father time, and I'd like for him to retire.
